Myocardial Damage in Patients with Sarcoidosis and Preserved Left Ventricular Systolic Function: An Observational Study

Abstract

In patients with sarcoidosis and preserved systolic function, myocardial damage is commonly present and may increase the risk of ventricular tachy-arrhythmias. The JMHW Criteria were neither sensitive nor specific for predicting the presence of myocardial LGE.
